Following the success of the project, which appointed 600 young intellectuals as vice chairs of poor communes in remote areas, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung approved another project to select young volunteers to work in remote and mountainous regions in the 2013-2020 period with recruitment to begin this May. These young people will be appointed to appropriate positions, based on the needs of each commune, to help the local government develop economics, reduce poverty, and build new rural areas. Minister Binh said that in addition to these programs, the government is planning to attract more elite students to work in Party and government agencies.
